Since 1975 we have grown to be one of the UK's largest independent locksmith companies. Over the last 38 years we have gained a huge amount of technical and practical experience with nearly every type of security mechanism - from domestic door locks & commercial safe installations to hospital master key systems.

We are now able to supply nationwide a huge range of security products, most with next day delivery options.

Whenever possible we aim to offer prompt professional advice and guidance either on the phone, with our on-site 'how to guides' or email, to ensure you are happy with your door locks, padlocks, cylinder locks or any other security product we supply.

We do try to work normal business hours - however if a customer is prepared to pay extra for a product or service to be delivered out of hours due to an emergency we are happy to quote a price when needed.
